Serial killer Rodney Alcala will be tried in Manhattan for the murders of flight attendant Cornelia Crilley and nightclub heiress Ellen Hoover.

Rodney Alcala, the convicted California serial killer who once appeared on the "Dating Game," is coming to New York to face two more murder charges going back to the 1970s, according to the Manhattan District Attorney's office.

U.S. Marshals are expected to deliver the brutal murderer into the city's custody on Wednesday afternoon.

The amateur photographer and self-published author was convicted and sentenced to death in California in 2010 for strangling four women and a 12-year-old girl.

He was also indicted in Manhattan in 2011 for the rape and murder of Cornelia Crilley, a flight attendant, and Ellen Hoover, the daughter of a Hollywood nightclub owner.

"Cold cases are not forgotten cases — our prosecutors, investigators, and partners in the NYPD do not give up," said Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance.

"These cases were built one brick at a time, as each new lead brought us closer to where we are today. In 2010, this Office's Cold Case Unit began an exhaustive re-examination of these two homicides, including a full re-investigation of evidence, and new interviews with more than 100 witnesses."
